"During the war and since, we have ccns : dered ignorance of the psychology 
of other races one of the most serious defects cf German character. But 
do not all nations fail in then appreciation of the mass psychology of other 
nations? The difficulty cf applying the Golden Rule comes from the fact 
that we do not know whether others really want us to act towards them 
as we would have them act towards us. Most often they do not. Our 
idealism breaks down in application because the line of conduct we fellow 
is misunderstood and resented by those of different background and tradi¬ 
tions and mental attitude. Whoever has tried to do social service knows 
that the Golden Rule must be modified. Judging the reactions of others 
by your own reactions is hunting for trouble." Herbert Adams Gibbons

Introduction 


For some years the Department for York with Foreign-Bom Women, 
National Board, Young '/omens Christian Association, has furnished its work¬ 
ers with bibliographies on racial backgrounds, The present venture is an 
effort to formulate an outline of bibliographical material that will more 
nearly serve the general program interests of the Association as a whole. 
Committee women, Students, Girl Reserves, industrial clubs, secretaries 
in all departments, are interested in 7orld Fellowship. This handbook 
points out to them a path of understanding to thirty three of the nation¬ 
ality groups actually experiencing World Fellowship in fiftly Internation¬ 
al Institutes of local Associations. 

It is unfair to any group to judge it upon the statements of aisin- 
•gle writer. The Handbook suggests comparative reading possibilities, many 
points of view are presented. The fact that any one publication is listed 
does not necessarily imply endorsement. The reader is not lead up to the 
narrow through, but is turned into the broad pasture. 


The Importance of a Nap 

Always use a map as a background for reading. Do not use maps 
made before the World far. Even post-war maps are changing and it is there¬ 
fore best to use those of recent date. lisps easily accessible are listed. 


Some Program Hints 

I. The individual Reading Course. - Read topically, many travel books 
refer to food on one page and history on the next. In order to really ac¬ 
quire facts the reader must classify this scattered information. Study the 
classification, of this outline and fit new information into the plan. 

If you find a. favorite topic after a preliminary general study, in¬ 
dulge yourself. A hobby that leads to intelligent internationalism is worth 

riding. 

II. The Group Course. — Groups may approach such study in several ways. 

They my plan formal programs of papers upon various topics or var¬ 
ious references on one topic. 

They may plan programs of reports end discussions upon a national¬ 
ity, with a leadsn- ?nd with members reading assigned references in advance 
of the meeting. In such a meeting it is well for the leader or a committee 
to summarize in concluding the program. 


They may plan activities worked out against a background of refer¬ 
ence. Committees will he responsible for various references and the whole 
will he welded together hy a leader. Such plans are useful for girls’ cluhs. 

Any of the above group plans may be used in classes as well as 

clubs. 


Some Possible Hobbies 

why not become an authority in your community on Swedish litera¬ 
ture? /hat are its characteristics.? ’What is its history? Who are its lead¬ 
ing writers? '/hat works have been translated into English? 

V/hy not learn to cook Armenian dishes so that your suppers nay be 
famous for enguinar, pilaf, or paklava? What are the values of Hear Eastern 
cooking? 


"/hy not become an entertainment resource to your friends by learn¬ 
ing Mexican folk songs? ’What s.re their characteristics? '.That instrument 
will best accompany them? 

V/hy not study the labor situation in Bulgaria? 7/hat is the "Green 
International"? ’Why are roses associated with livelihood there? 

V/hy not analyze the tangled situation in the Hear East? 7/hat na¬ 
tionalities are involved? Hot do they differ? 'That are their relations to 
European and Asiatic countries? To your own country? 

V/hy not know the history of religion in some one group of European 
countries? What ha.s been its relation to education in those countries? 

What is the history of democratic fellowship in them? 


A Few Project Suggestions 

Syrians go on pilgrimages. 'While en route they cook in the open 
if the weather is pleasant. Did you ever think that your club might study 
Syrian pilgrimages and apply the study to program? 

The only prominent amusement of Turks is story telling. Wouldn't 
you like to hear about the professional story teller and his repertoire? 

After the long hard day of work in the field the Hungarian peasant 
bursts into folk song. Folk "sings" are a program suggestion. There may 
be specialization on a racial group or general singing. 

Balkan peoples dance the Koro. "Folk Dances as a Form of Social 
Recreation" is the name of a new course given in one of our leading univer¬ 
sities. 


Ill- 


/e deling Customs in Various Lands, or Bread Ms Icing in Many Coun¬ 
tries, are topics for picture hunts. Search your home and community li¬ 
braries. 

The Russian peasant takes the Easter goodies to church to be 
blessed on Easter morn. Can you see any symbolism in this custom? Can you 
apply it to your Easter plans? 


Increasing '/orId Friendship 

Begin one or more friendships with representatives of nationali¬ 
ties other than your ovai. Relate your reading to life. 


Measure Your Library 

Is there a public library in your community? Or perhaps you use 
a college library. How far does it help as a resource for increasing world 
understanding? Use this handbook as an experimental measuring string. How 
many of the books and articles listed are to be found cn the library shelves? 
How can you co-operate with the librarian and the library board to increase 
this type of service?

pearing in magazine and newspaper book reviews. In addition to the maga¬
